That list is either for a grueling endurance trip, or it was a joke; although I have run into a few people with trunks loaded to the hilt like that.
Here's what my trunk looks like normally for shows:
...take the carpet off the spare and...
...taking the wooden plate (1/8" wall paneling I cut with a band-saw)
reveals the inverted spare tire. Its held to the floor with a bolt that
goes through a 1"-thick, round, wooden-block cut to fit inside the wheel
then given 4 coats of polyurethane for protection...
...which further reveals part of my standard "kit". I usually put a quart
of oil (wrapped in a zip-lock just in case) and a fan belt...
Shown in the picture is (left to right, clockwise):
<ul type="square">[*]A zippered bag for the...[*]lug-nuts for the spare and...[*]sockets for the spare and alloy-wheel lug nuts.[*]A spool of safety wire[*]Gloves if I need 'em[*]fix-a-flat[*]large socket wrench for the lug nuts[*]adjustable wrench[*]safety-wire pliars[/list]
For my long trip to Virginia last year I also tossed in my roll of open-ended wrenchs and needle-nose pliars.
I also have a small bag with a detailing kit I carry to shows with a couple of clean microfiber towels, a wad of paper towels, Mother's Chrome Polish (great for the glass, mirrors, chrome, and wheels), Zano or Mother's detailing spray, one or two 100% cotton towels, and a California Dash-Duster.
Of course you can't go without a couple of folding chairs to sit on (I have a couple of really small ones, and two regular size Coleman chairs - both are ok). For overnight and long trips I also stuff my Weathershield car-cover in one of the fenders - with still enough room for my camera equipment, small duffle bag for clothes, etc. Anything else goes behind the seat.
